This is the first book to explore the institutional, ideological,
and conceptual development of the modern state on the peninsula.
Rationalizing Korea analyzes the state's relationship to five
social sectors, each through a distinctive interpretive theme:
economy (developmentalism), religion (secularization), education
(public schooling), population (registration), and public health
(disease control). Kyung Moon Hwang argues that while this
formative process resulted in a more commanding and systematic
state, it was also highly fragmented, socially embedded, and driven
by competing, often conflicting rationalizations, including those
of Confucian statecraft and legitimation. Such outcomes reflected
the acute experience of imperialism, nationalism, colonialism, and
other sweeping forces of the era.
